It is quintessential to travel once a while, preferably without laptops, cellphones, tablets, phablets, kindles, stopwatches and gps. Leaving all these behind and exploring the world with amenable folks is a treasure. On this note, I am hoping to make such travels more possible and frequent; at least once a year. Given the hectic schedules of work and study, the pressures of social life and keeping up with the vapid news how much vacation time is the right vacation time.
The right time seems to be between a week and 3 weeks: anything more or less than this seems dull and effortful. Then there is also the problem of finding things to do on vacations, I have faced problems where I am on a vacation but the rest of the world is working. This makes scheduling and setting up events painful. The second prospect of vacationing is to find the right company to vacation with. Exploring the Jungles of India, the sights of new york, the california beaches or the italian culture each comes with certain requirements and constraints. The right people who can satisfy these requirements and constraints add pleasure to the vacation and make it memorable.
My most recent visit to India has alerted me to possible situations where difficulties arise: inclement weather, medical emergencies and bad planning top the list. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip thanks to the efforts of my close friends and family, but a little planning could have gone a long way.
